A balanced approach to Web3 compensation is emerging as a key retention strategy.​ Here's what works:

  • Base salary in stablecoins provides financial security
  • Project tokens offered as performance bonuses create alignment
  • This hybrid model reduces treasury strain while maintaining motivation

The strategy addresses both immediate financial needs and long-term investment potential, helping organizations retain talent without overcommitting token reserves.​

Key benefits:

  • Predictable income for employees
